Look at the manufacturers plate on the boat for max HP and or weight. If there is none either call them or consult a marine engineer or body and get a rating tag fitted. My two previous motors on my 16 footer have been 90hp and 115hp.

What cleaning supplies should be used on a fiberglass boat?

A sponge and some fiberglass sealers works the best on a fiberglass boat. There are other fiberglass cleaning material available depending on what your particular need is. For just basic cleaning, I would go with the sponge and fiberglass sealer.


Can you install a wake tower on to a fish and ski boat with an outboard motor?

Yes you can. You have to know 2 things about your boat: 1. Can you pull someone out of the water with your motor? ( for a 16 ft fiberglass boat you need at the very least 80hp, but a 120 does better) 2. Do you have a place to mount the tower and not have it rip out? There is a lot of pressure on that thing

It really depends on the state that you are in. There are different rules and regulations. In Kentucky, where I live, you have to license "anything" with a trolling motor no matter what (inflatable boat, canoe, etc.) It seems kind of silly though!
